Abstract
This paper integrates the tools of corpus linguistics and a more genre-oriented perspective in order to explore the lemmatizations of conclu* in the Conclusions of English and Italian research articles in history. Specifically, the main emphasis is placed on second-level Summarizers and concluders (Siepmann 2005) and the way they interact with other discourse markers and metadiscourse across moves. As will be seen, SLDMs represent a marked option,in that they add extra-meaning to their more general, more transparent, more frequent, and lessspecific counterparts. Whereas variation within the unit or pattern results from combinations with discourse markers from the same or other categories, variation across English and Italian isbetter accounted for within an interpersonal model of metadiscourse (Hyland 2004, 2008), interms of different strategies on the interactional level.
